You seem to think that elitists are the problem here, but really its just trash players who are so astonishingly bad, that it's impossible to ignore. Yes some players aren't as nice as others, but that isn't something that is unique to elitists, there are plenty of bad players that are rude and put no effort into anything.
If you're doing DPS relevant to your gear level, you're fine. If you come into a fight as a tank, and know what to do, you're fine. If you're the spastic DPS who barely manages to scrape 30k DPS with 520 ilvl, you're going to get called out.
OP mentions that WoW is "just a game", but not everyone wants to waste their time because of terrible players. I find it ironic that you're calling out elitists, but being one yourself, by your definition, you're trying to control other players, and trying to force them out of content that should be accessible to everyone. Some argument you've got there bud, 10/10.
People are always going to be rude. Calling them an "elitist" because they don't want to waste their time fucking around because of a few shitty players is hardly fair.
I think you should change your title / post to: "Remove toxic players from Raids and Battlegrounds", Elitist and Casuals aren't the problem, it's the toxic players in general.
